<h1>Installation of PostgreSQL</h1>

<h2>Windows</h2>
<p>Download and install PostgreSQL form it's website. Follow the instructions.
The installer includes PgAdmin management utility too.</p>
<h2>Linux</h2>
<p>Use <tt>Ubuntu Software Center</tt> (Ubuntu 11.10+ Oneiric Ocelot) or <tt>Synaptics Package Manager</tt>
in case of pre 11.10 Ubuntu (in case of Fedora, SUSE or other distribution
use the package manager of the distribution) to install the following packages:</p>
<ul>
	<li><tt>postgresql-8.4</tt> or <tt>postgresql-9.1</tt> or whichever is the newest
		supported version on your distribution</li>
	<li><tt>pgadmin3</tt></li>
</ul>
<h2>Mac OS X</h2>
<p>The followings are only our recommendations. If you are an expert with PostgreSQL on
Mac OS X, and you have a working system please continue with the schema setup steps.</p>
<ul>
<li>Forget about Fink or MacPorts repositories. Also do not use installer available on
PostgreSQL site. Uninstall these if you have them.</li>
<li>Create a user "<tt>postgres</tt>" (any password should do)</li>
<li>Download and run
<a href="http://www.postgresqlformac.com/lists/downloads/unified_installer_disk_imag/">
<tt>PostgreSQL unified installer</tt></a></li>
<li>Create symbolic links to elements in the Library (TODO: further explanation and steps)</li>
</ul>
